My Boy Jack odds to win the 2018 Kentucky Derby were at 16-1. Odds were previously at 30-1.
POST POSITION POSSIBILITIES
This is by far one of the best post positions, producing a total of 10 winners. Giacomo (2005); Lil E. Tee (1992); Sunday Silence (1989); Spend a Buck (1985); Sunny’s Halo (1983); Genuine Risk (1980); Secretariat (1973); Dark Star (1953); Omaha (1935).
THE GOOD
He's run at four different tracks this year, across the country, compiling two wins and two thirds, all in graded stakes races. With 10 career races, he has more experience than any horse in the field.
It’s a great post position and Hall of Fame jockey Kent Desormeaux will be riding My Boy Jack:
“Perfect; right in the middle. We wanted to be there or farther outside. With our style (a late runner) we just didn’t want to be inside and taking a lot of dirt in the face right away.”
THE BAD
The Derby will be his third race in three states in seven weeks.
